Google announces that it has signed a corporate geothermal power purchase
agreement, or P-P-A, with Baseload Power Taiwan.

This marks Google's first geothermal energy deal in the Asia-Pacific region.

The company aims to leverage Taiwan’s abundant geothermal resources to
promote the development of all-day-long clean energy both in the Asia-Pacific
and around the world.



In an official blog post, Google explained that since signing Taiwan’s first
renewable energy PPA in 2019, it has been actively working to accelerate the
development of clean energy to meet the needs of its local data centers and
offices.

The newly signed geothermal PPA will involve a project developed by Baseload
Power Taiwan and add 10 megawatts of "always-on" power to Taiwan’s grid,
supporting the growth of the country's geothermal market.
